fly like an eagle
as free as a bird in the sky
be a dreamcatcher
perfect stunt in formation
lethal kings of the heavens

fly like an eagle
as free as a bird in the sky
be a dreamcatcher
with lethal beaks and talons
where land creatures are fair game

A friend who flys light aircraft as a hobby, once took me up and practiced stalling...that was more than enough for me...I wouldn't want to experience anything faster or more hair raising!
